With more and more crowdfunding campaigns starting every day, making a project stand out and be successful can be a challenge. However, the animated film from Disney veterans Aaron Blaise and Chuck Williams, “Art Story,” has picked up momentum in its final week, and the creators are asking for help from the crowdfunding community to reach their goal.
From the lovable and relatable main characters to the adventures they take to the famous paintings they journey through, fans are quickly falling in love with “Art Story.” With Aaron Blaise Chuck Williams behind the film, who have been making Disney animated classics together for over 20 years, such as “The Lion King,” “Aladdin,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Brother Bear” and more, “Art Story” is likely to become the next family favorite. With over 1,000 backers on Kickstarter already behind the film, it is clear that “Art Story” has the potential to be a huge hit for the whole family.
“Art Story” is much more than the average Kickstarter movie. It tells a heartwarming and memorable story that viewers will cherish their entire life.

Recently, the soon-to-be animated favorite has picked up speed, raising over $100,000 in the past three days, and just needs a final push to bring this amazing movie to life. With pledge levels allowing backers to suggest a painting by pledging $1 to the “Art Story” DVD for $40 to the swag combo packet for $150 to being in the movie for $7,500 and many levels in between, there is a reward for any “Art Story” fan.
“Chuck and I saw all the exciting things happening online through crowdfunding and thought, we’ve got a great film that should be made,” says “Art Story” director Aaron Blaise. “‘Art Story’ has the kind of characters that stick with an audience and is a film that the whole family will love and cherish for years to come.
